dual boot Dell laptop that already had Jaunty and Vista on it.  The install
went fine and it fired up without any problems.  Only reason I did not nuke
Vista was because of my iPod Touch.  Couple of minor bugs in Karmic but
everyone OS has minor bugs.  I am probably at the advanced novice stage in
terms of experience.
